Takes place around Season 7. Applebloom has been a long time fan of the EPRL (Earth Pony Racing League) and has attended several races since she was a foal. Her dream has always been to see racing idol, Checkered Flag, win before her eyes, but to no avail so far. As a reward for her hard work with the Cutie Mark Crusaders helping other fillies and colts discover their true meaning in Equestria, Applejack decides to bring her to Appleoosa to fulfill a lifelong dream. But with talks of Checkered Flag possibly retiring soon and a hotshot rookie named Slipstream stealing Checkered's thunder, the young filly is suffering inner turmoil over her favorite sport. It also doesn't help that at the Appleoosa Derby, she may or may not have stumbled upon something that could decide her future as an Earth Pony Racing League fan. Is it just her fear of missing her favorite racer on the track, or is there something truly going on with Slipstream in between races?

You and Rainbow Dash have been friends since foalhood. Your favorite pastime? Racing. You two have raced hundreds of times. You finally beat her one day, and offers you a reward. Confused by her offer, you accept. Unknown to you, she has something she wants to confess to you. You never expected it was this....

This is my attempt at a second person fic. It's also my first attempt at Romance.

It may be part of a series. I don't know yet. Crowley has really inspired me. This is my attempt to mimic his fantastic work. I may find a way to tie a bunch of stories together. I'm not sure yet.

Alternate Universe tag because, well, I felt like it should be in one.
